8. Conclusion

Very complex programming is involved in creating a game. It
requires skill and talent. Although Doom's engine has been
surpassed by many better ones (most created, however, by id
Software themselves) it still has historical significance because
without it, the others could not have come about. With
technological advancements taking place everyday, we are sure to
see some stunning games in the future - which again will stand
out not just for their entertainment value, but for the hard work
and genius that goes into programming them.
